Review by JONAS DICKSON

What I liked

I loved the writing, the vulnerability, the performance, the character work, the lighting and sound, the overall flow, the connection with the audience, the brutality, the subject matter. There was nothing about the show I didn’t like.

What I didn't like

It was perfect

My overall impression

Just a delight!! A raw, vulnerable, and hilarious peek into parenthood through the lens of a young mother. This show will have you laughing and gritting your teeth as you journey with Suz through parenting adventures you were not expecting to hear. She does not hold back and she will charm you with her natural wit and spot-on character work. At the end you will want to call your own mom, thank her for her service, and ask if you ever gave her pinworms.
